I had a moment on the CRF last week..... Very unpleasant feeling.I must have gone sideways because i'm sure i could see the back wheel.Stayed up though.A bit off off road training goes a very long way.......
I've been racing MX bikes since I was 7 now 40 (that don't mean I'm any good), sometimes it does....but others it don't....lol. Even Rossi broke his leg in the end...lol. Dangerouse things those motorcycles you know.....
Good opertunity wasted dude should have contacted R&G with help from Tweeks (Free advert on how good the product is = new free sets of protectors (or am i just dreaming) Glad you are ok though .I saw a zx6r bombing through Warrington Town Centre today and i thought christ wish i was out on mine .
is not allowed to use race rain tires on the streets? i mean few pairs of used ones since its always wet around here especialy at winter will help a lot so the bike dont sleep that easy ...there frame is soft so is the rubber on them and it works even cold for normal use ... had those for 3 months of greek winter they where amazing you could power wheely in a realy bad tarmac street in the middle of rain ;P
not so good mate but glad you`re ok and the bike!. My bike is defo away for the winter now as we have snow and ice here tha last 3 days :O Between yesterday and this morning according to the radio there was 80 crashes !! . 2 main roads blocked aswell so its just not worth it . So..... Roll on april !
Glad to hear you are OK and the R&Gs did their job. Similar thing happened to me middle of last week, just pulled off with hardly any throttle and the rear stepped out, luckily caught it before it hit the deck, no ice but freaking cold. Wondering if the BT015s are not very suitable when the weather get a bit nippy, might chop em in for BT023 or PR3s anyone have any thoughts on this?
Went out today on the Blade, gorgeous day - just went to Helmsley and back so only 30 miles. Cold but plenty of grip, just had to be cautious. Still do get the odd good days in winter - although admittedly pretty rare!
Last year I went out on boxing day, blue sky, roads washed with the rain the day before and loved it.If its dry and 10 degrees I'm out playing.Lets hope the weather is good during the xmas hols.And if its warm enough I would even do a bike meet.Anyone up for one?
My blade isn't coming out now until the salt on the roads has gone! You should see the state of my scooter it's covered in a thick layer of salt. It was blue and its now white! Still riding the scoot though....!(carefully)
Ditto, to all the above, for 4 years i rode to work and back all year round.... that was on a CBF600N, I now have a Fireblade 954 ! Not going to happen, mine is tucked away and will stay there until either spring or the rare days talked about come up and i can get out on a nice crisp day ..........but with no ice or salt. In my job i walk around the town and streets a lot, so yesterday i had a very good lesson in how the roads may look ok but they can be deadly.... lots of people slipping arese over tit with no sign of ice or anything else, best to just stay off the road when its like this.
